Hey @Robz8, I'm a 'lil picky... (I'm using the LATEST BUILD) When I go on TWLM++, the classic start-up music for TWLM++ is replaced with glitchy sounds. I love that classic music.

I have a 256gb SD card in my 2dsxl, how much a risk of card corruption is there when I disable Save FAT table cache?

Just wondering before I install

There should be no risk. There's only risk if it's enabled.

Yes, it's possible, but it's not implemented yet.

Good work with the new music!, I think it would fit perfectly in a fully original theme, I'm glad because the freezing bug no longer appears in the theme of the DSi, by the way, thanks to you and the entire team of TWiLight for the most complete translation into Spanish, as my knowledge of English is very basic for now. :P

The Akmenu/Wood UI theme has been temporarily removed due to bugs.
Also, press A on the current theme in TWLMenu++ Settings to select the skin of the theme.

I ended up using DSi theme, but i got another problem. Wheni change the color of DSi theme, the cusros stays the same color (blue), no matter what theme i choose.
Im "forced" to use the blue theme cause its the only one that matches the color of a cursor that i cant change.
How do i fix that?

Also, is there a way to put a custom DSi menu music?

Thanks for your reply, but it turns out i changed bunch of options and made a mess. I ended up spending a day till i figured out how everything works etc. Now its cool :)
But the most annoying thing for me was that i didnt know how to enter the settings until i pressed select by accident.

The cursor color is based on your DS's theme color. On DSi it can be changed at System Settings -> User information -> User color. on DS and 3DS it'll be in a similar place, but I'm not sure exactly where.

Also, is there a way to put a custom DSi menu music?
Yeah, follow this guide in the GitHub repo

"If you used TWiLight Menu++ Updater or Universal-Updater to update, please install the latest TWiLight Menu++ CIAs using FBI.
"
Does this mean that i don't use TWL updater to update everything...its basically useless now and i need to do it manually every new update?

"Menu BGM

To create custom menu BGM, you will need to install SoX.
Menu BGM is created from menu.wav, which must be 16-bit 16kHz Mono. You can use Audacity for example to convert to this format. Once the file is loaded in Audacity, change the Project Rate (Hz) to 16000, then press Shift+M, and change the Format to 16-bit PCM.
If your file is in Stereo, you should also go to Tracks > Mix > Mix Stereo down to Mono.
If SoX is installed, once you run make, you will get a bgm.pcm.raw file, that can be copied to the sound subfolder in your theme folder.
Unlike sfx.bin, bgm.pcm.raw can be arbitrarily large."

Can you please help? I dont really understand how to do this, like steps are missing, or this guide assumes i know what im doing, which i dont really.

Finding Pokémon HeartGold is freezing quite regularly on the latest bundled release (N2DS XL and DSi XL). I'm using no enhancements to clock speeds or VRAM.

I've had this on all releases on DSi but had played 25 hours or so on N2DS on bootstrap 0.29.3

Do you mean freezing like black screen with music still playing in the background? Are you using any sort of cheats?
